Chapter 660 Small Magellanic
［银河243年5月16日，下午16：34。

Today is the 15th day since we entered the Small Magellanic Cloud No. 2000. This dwarf galaxy is very strange. We have searched an area of ​​nearly [-] light-years, but no living planets have been found.

According to the average density of living planets in the Milky Way, the Small Magellanic Cloud, which spans 1.5 light-years, has 8.7 million stars, and at least hundreds of living planets must exist.

However, here is a suffocating death zone. What kind of secrets are hidden here?
If it is caused by the high abundance of dark matter, it is difficult to explain the situation of this dwarf galaxy.

For example, the famous subsidiary dwarf galaxy of the Milky Way, the dark dwarf galaxy, has a concentration of dark matter hundreds of thousands of times that of the Milky Way, which makes the dark dwarf galaxy a veritable desert of life.

However, the concentration of dark matter in the Small Magellanic Cloud is only about 6.8 times that of the Milky Way, and even lower than the concentration of 9.4 times that of the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy, and there are still 27 living planets in the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy.

It's all so weird.

Captain Ma Wu was also very puzzled, is the Small Magellanic Cloud really a dead zone?
Hope to have new discoveries tomorrow. ]
Austin put down the pen, closed the vintage notebook, stood up and stretched, and tied his light blonde hair into a ponytail.

The room was a holographic and realistic pastoral scene. She poured herself orange juice and lay down on the rocking chair.

Before she knew it, she had been wandering in the universe with Ma Wu for more than 200 years, and she and Ma Wu were the only old members of the Explorer [-] spacecraft.

the other side.

Ma Wu frowned and looked at the star map. The dark subwave radar of the Explorer [-] spacecraft is the latest model of the alliance, and it can easily scan an area of ​​tens of thousands of light years.

Judging from the scanning results, the situation of the Small Magellanic Cloud Galaxy is not optimistic. Although there is no detailed investigation, years of space exploration experience told him that this is a lifeless dead zone.

8.7 million stars represent 8.7 million star systems, plus those wandering planets, the entire Small Magellanic Cloud has billions of planets, and there is not even a living planet.

This is so anomalous.

"Captain, are you still having a headache about not discovering a planet with life?" Deputy captain Qing Jiaoda just came back from the restaurant.

"Yeah! It's too abnormal. There is no reason why a planet with life doesn't exist." Ma Wu scratched his hair a little irritably.

"Would you like to have a meal first, today is the dumpling banquet." Qing Jiaoda took over the command of the spaceship.

"I'm not hungry."

The drivers who changed shifts came back one after another to change shifts. Ma Wu was still searching the alliance's scientific research database while comparing the respective data collected by them.

Ma Wu, who had no clue, walked towards the cabin of the scientific research team.

For Ma Wu, the people in the scientific research team are very impressed. After all, a person who can wander in the starry sky for more than 200 years, his perseverance is indeed worthy of everyone's admiration.

"Ling, do you have any research results?"

The immaculate female Yuyuan raised her head and handed a holographic document to Ma Wu.

"The research work is full of difficulties. There are many situations in the Small Magellanic Cloud, and there are very large errors from our estimates." Ling replied helplessly.

"Do you know the reason?" Ma Wu asked while flipping through the documents.

Ling thought for a while and replied: "According to past experience, a group of star systems meets the conditions for the birth of a living planet, but there is no living planet. There are no more than two possibilities."

"Human factors and natural factors, right?"

Ling nodded: "It's these two factors. Human factors are usually wars and the like; while natural factors are much more complicated, such as: galaxies and star clusters merging, supernova explosions, dark matter concentration exceeding the standard and so on."

"The situation in the Small Magellanic Cloud does not seem to be the same?" Ma Wu put down the file and said.

"This is why it is said that the Small Magellanic Cloud is contrary to common sense. We have performed supercomputing simulations for all possibilities, but none of them match." Ling replied dejectedly.

"Could it be a human factor?" Ma Wu whispered to himself.

There is also a star map in the scientific research cabin. Ma Wu, Ling and others surrounded the star map, but they still couldn't get a clue.

Eliminate the impossible, and what remains, however impossible, is the truth - Arthur Conan Doyle

Ma Wu was searching on the star map, and suddenly he asked Wen Ling: "Is the position of the blue cursor a star system where life-like planets may exist?"

"Yes, what's the problem?"

"..." Ma Wu narrowed his eyes immediately, clicked on the blue-marked star system closest to them, and then zoomed in to a very intuitive state.

A red dwarf star system, on the third orbit of this star system, an terrestrial planet is orbiting the main sequence star.

For this terrestrial planet, according to the alliance's laws of life planets, the possibility of this planet being a life planet is about 76.8%.

But at this moment, there is no sign of life on this planet.

After Ma Wu looked at it for a while, he turned his head and said to Ling: "Ling, please sort out the planets with a probability of birth of life greater than 50%, and then send them to me."

"No problem." After Ling entered the conditions, he immediately screened out 83 natural satellites of terrestrial planets and 3 large gaseous planets.

"Thanks."

"you are welcome."

……

Ma Wu returned to the cockpit with a heavy heart.

He entered the suspected life-like planet sent to him by the spirit just now into the star map in the cockpit.

"Dacai."

"Here, what's the matter, Captain?"

"Jump to the star system numbered XM-7698-3504."

"XM-7698-3504?"

"Yes."

"almost ready."

Qing Jiaoda entered the coordinate system of this star system, and the Explorer [-] spacecraft opened the space gate, and then rushed over.

For an instant.

Explorer [-] appeared in the star system designated by Ma Wu.

"Trinos, search this star system carefully for me."

"OK."

The micron group is the working group that controls the micron robot, and the micron robot is an upgraded version of the alliance's proton robot. The smaller particles can be very concealed and can fly faster than the speed of light.

Because of the limitation of the speed of light, it can only work on photons, neutrinos and the like.

And microns are very small, five orders of magnitude smaller than photons, and particles smaller than photons can achieve superluminal speed, such as dark subwaves and the like.

Although the micron is not as fast as the dark wave, its fastest speed can still reach 370 million times the speed of light. This speed is within tens of thousands of light years, and it is actually no different from teleportation.

Countless micron robots were launched, and the entire star system was checked inside and out.

"Report, on the third planet, there are signs of paleontological fossils found."

"Investigate the situation of paleontological fossils and the reason for the destruction of this living planet." Ma Wu ordered.

After more than half an hour.

A freshly released report appeared in Ma Wu's hands, but after reading it, he was not happy.

Because this planet of life was finished by itself, its magnetic field strength was exhausted 1.2 million years ago, which caused the planet's atmosphere to be blown away by the solar wind of the star, which triggered the end of this planet of life.

"Retract the micron robot, and then head towards the XM-8613-4426 star system."

"receive."
